PTSD from psychotic episodes...?

Has anyone here got PTSD from psychotic episodes ?

My first psychotic episode , I was shell shocked for 5 years, frightened to death, i was never the same after that belt

It can be very traumatic to be hospitalized. It’s a scar you have to carry the rest of you life, even if it is not considered PTSD

The author and professor, Elyn Saks, suffered from the same delusion. Sounds like a horrible delusion.

You can read about it in her book, it’s an optimistic book, by the way.:

my situation is closer to PTSD caused psychosis. it does work both ways

I was literally telling myself I was having pre PTSD all the while going through psychotic episodes. I think that helped me in the long run. Allowing some form of “reality” amongst the madness I was experiencing
